Here are some words about the Lords Plan, which tens of thousands believe are His words when the book is closed, but which many denouce when anyone tries to put them into practise: I, the Lord, built this earth as a very handy work, and all things therein are mine. And it is my purpose to provide for my saints (people) for all things are mine. But it must needs be done in my own way. And behold this is the way that 1, the Lord, have decreed to provide for my saints, (people) that the poor ehall --be exalted in that the rich are made low. (Equality) For the earth is full and there is enough and to spare. Therefore if any man shall take of the abundance which I have given, and impart not his portion according to the law of my gospel, unto the poor and the needy, he shall, with the wicked,lift up his eyes in hell.
